Description Franz Trischberger 2013-04-14 10:02:28 UTC

I was forced to systemd, as kde's powerdevil seems to be broken on non-systemd-systems. As really nothing works with systemd (no network, no sshd, no cups...) I wanted to boot into openrc (reading bugreports - this was said to work fine) and I was not allowed to mount USB discs or suspend my machine.

After fiddling around it turned out to be polkit. Building it with USE="-systemd" magically gave me back rights to suspend/mount/whatever other fancy stuff.

See my patch:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=63504

there is an ebuild on the systemd-love overlay.

Comment 2 David Heidelberg (okias) 2013-04-30 21:41:18 UTC

could you retest with lastest systemd?
It's not solving issue, but with lastest packages (at least ~amd64 or ~x86):
systemctl enable dhcpcd
systemctl enable sshd
systemctl enable cupsd

this should help :)
